Can I pass parameters from a dashboard via a dashboard prompt and presentation variable to publisher report based on a data model with select statements in OBIEE 11g ?

I have a publisher 11g (v 11.1.1.7)  report with a single parameter. The report is based on a data model not a subject area.  I created a dashboard put a dashboard prompt and link to the report in separate section on the same page.  The dashboard prompt sets a presentation variable named the same as the parameter in the report. 
The problem was when I created the dashboard prompt, it forced me to select a subject area which I did (though did not want to) and then I created both a column and variable prompts. But clicking on the
report link completely ignored the value that I thought would be passed in the presentation variable to the report.
Side note :  My report uses a pdf template for its layout where I have mapped the columns names from my data model to the form fields on the pdf form.  I noticed that if I create a publisher report based on a subject area, then I do not have the choice to choose a PDF as a template type for my layout.  (I only see BI Publisher Template as a choice). 
I see some documentation online that suggest it could be done in 10g.
Thanks

Ok,
I just tried that and it still doesn't pass anything to the prompt.
I changed the prompt to an edit field and I made the following weblink but when i click the link from an account it doesn't put anything in the prompt and all data for all accounts is shown.
This is the URL maybe I messed something up...

  • How can I pass parameters from report to HTML page

    Hi,
    Does any one know how to pass value from Portal Report to other HTML page (asp for excample).
    I build a Protal report, and I want jamp to "http://...viewDoc.asp?DocID=DocumentID" URL, by clicking on link, where "DocumentID" is parameter that to be pass from report.

    One way is to create a link based on that form and attach that

  • Can you pass parameters from one application component to another?

    I want to have a page of portlets showing applications components (small forms, reports etc) with co-ordinated information.
    That is, I want the user to enter a single criterion in a portlet and then I want all the portlets to respond by querying the results for that single criterion.
    I'm building an interface for a system based on normalized tables with many-to-many relationships and therefore intersecting-entities.
    (I looked at master-detail forms under webdb, so I don't think they'll do the job. I have data from about 6 tables that I want co-ordinated.)
    Links also don't seem to be what I want, because I don't want extra clicks or one portlet to be replaced by another.
    I've seen the Parameter Passing example, and that is the sort of coordination I'd like. In fact that's what gave me the idea. But that is based on custom database portlets, whereas I really want to use Portal forms and reports.
    Is this possible?

  • Passing parameters from an URL to a WAD Web Template 7.0

    Hi guys, I need to pass parameters from an URL to a web template created with WAD 7.0. We need to open a template with certain filters starting from a link button located on an Xcelsius Dashboard. Our customer wants a web template to be opened with the filters defined within the Xcelsius
    The idea is to run the template with the filters defined in the URL. I know this was incredibly easy with WAD 3.x, but I didn't find any suitable solutions to use with WAD 7.0.
    What is the easiest way to do this with WAD 7.0?
    Thanks in advance and regards.
    Fabio Cristi

    Hi,
    It is possible in 7.0, but unfortunately it is a lot more complicated than i 3.x. There are quite a few examples here:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/43/ef05462480025ae10000000a1553f7/content.htm
    I used it in a case where I wanted to embed a Web template in a BPS application and pass characteristic filters from the BPS application to the web template - similar to your requirements. Basically you need the following just to restrict one characteristic :o(
    &BI_COMMAND_1-BI_COMMAND_TYPE=SET_SELECTION_STATE
    &BI_COMMAND_1-TARGET_DATA_PROVIDER_REF_LIST-TARGET_DATA_PROVIDER_REF_1=DP_1
    &BI_COMMAND_1-CHARACTERISTICS_SELECTIONS-CHARACTERISTIC_SELECTIONS_1-SELECTIONS-SELECTION_1=SELECTION_INPUT_STRING
    &BI_COMMAND_1-CHARACTERISTICS_SELECTIONS-CHARACTERISTIC_SELECTIONS_1-SELECTIONS-SELECTION_1-SELECTION_INPUT_STRING=PDS06
    &BI_COMMAND_1-CHARACTERISTICS_SELECTIONS-CHARACTERISTIC_SELECTIONS_1-CHARACTERISTIC=0D_PH2
    I could only get it to work with one characteristic and I suspect, that the reason is that the URL simply gets to long (very quickly). You have to repeat the above for every characterstic you want to use :o(

  • Automatically Pass Parameters From Crystal To SAP B1

    So, I've searched extensively, and haven't been able to find an answer to my unique issue.
    This question pertains to linking a Crystal Report by parameter values to the OWOR table in SAP B1, and automatically passing those parameter values from the active record in SAP. Several other tables are used in sql joins, but the report is generated from an OWOR production order. I should start by stating that the report works great when manually populating the parameter fields when SAP calls for them.
    Overview:
    I've written a report in Crystal that contains several sub reports, some of which are looking to the DocEntry field as the parameter (DocKey@) and others that do not look to the DocEntry field at all - but rather use another field on the form to pull up information that spans more than just that one production order. I've chosen to upload as a layout in SAP (as that is all I've worked with up to this point, and it seems it needs to be to automate from a production order); but as I continue to research, it appears DocKey@ is mandatory when uploading as a layout, and in order to view the report from the actively selected production order, it must be a layout. Does that mean the parameter is required in all sub reports? Is it required in any sub report?
    I have two main issues that I need to hurdle for this report to work how I would like it to:
    1. Three of the eight Commands (one main command and seven sub-report commands) use the DocKey@ as the parameter to pass from SAP back to Crystal. The main report command, as well as four of the sub reports/commands are looking to another field in the OWOR record - which happens to be a re-seller defined field (UDF). For all intensive purposes, let's call this field BatchID. I'm assuming the sub report commands run in succession, one after the next. The reason I need to use BatchID as the parameter to pull from the record, rather than DocEntry, is there are other records that contain the same BatchID, and I want all of the info pertaining to that BatchID to populate on the report.
    Q1: The first command containing DocKey@ is automatically populated by SAP, and the user does not have to key that one in. However, the next two DocKey@ parameters do not automatically populate, and the user is asked for those values. How can I fix this?
    Q2: How can I automate the passing of BatchID so the user does not have to fill it in 5 times when they wish to preview the report(layout)? Can I link ObjectID@ to any field in OWOR? Is there any other way like creating a stored procedure or something , to automate the passing of that variable from the SAP active record to the crystal report - so the user doesn't have to key it in several times just to pull up the report?
    Thank you so much for even reading, let alone helping me with this issue!!

  • Passing Parameters from JSP with Drill Down Graphs

    Hello,
    I have 2 JSP's where when user clicks on the bar graph it drill down and goes to next JSP, it is hyperlink. How can I pass parameters using HttpPortletRendererUtil.portletParameter
    My JSP code is something like this which is pasted below.
    StandardCategoryURLGenerator("xy_chart.jsp","series","section")) is the function, I need to use for drill down.
    Kindly help me with this and any help is highly appreciable.
    Thanks
    ************ JSP**************
    CategoryAxis categoryAxis = new CategoryAxis("Site");
    ValueAxis valueAxis = new NumberAxis("Value");

    rend.setItemURLGenerator(new StandardCategoryURLGenerator("xy_chart.jsp","series","section"));

    Trenton,
    One way to pass parameters to other portlets on the page while using a form is to create a hidden form field and assign it the value that you need to pass to it. If the hidden field has an unqualified name (i.e. not created by using the portletParameter method) then it will be seen by all portlets on the page.
    Since all the form fields are passed on to the query string as part of the URL, you can then use request.getParameter(paramName) to take different actions in your portlets.
    You could use different techniques where based on the values you pass on to parameters of the portlets, some portlets make specific updates to themselves. Though the whole page would be refreshed, you could allow portlets to decide based on the incoming parameter value whether they need to change or not.
    So given the functionality you desire - here's something you might try.
    1) Create hidden form field that gets populated when you select values from the drop-down lookup.
    One way to do this would be to add a onChange ="populateMyHiddenParam(this.form)" to your form item that changes.
    And you could add a small JavaScript function that populates the parameter.
    e.g.
    function populateMyHiddenParam(thisForm){
    thisForm.myHiddenParam.value=thisForm.elements[4].value;
    2)In the other JSP portlet (on the same page) where you need to populate a table based on the value selected, just get the parameter value passed by using request.getParameter("myHiddenParam").
    Since you want this parameter to be read by other portlets, you need to create it as an unqualified parameter. So dont call the HTTPPortletRendererUtil.portletParameter while assigning the name to the form component for the hidden field.
    Hope this helps.

  • Passing parameters from BIP to Direct DB request while scheduling

    Hi Guys,
    I've a requirement to create a BI Publisher report in 11.1.1.7 where the data source is a BI Analysis which is calling a sybase stored procedure in a Direct DB Request and passing date parameters to return corresponding values.
    I'm using presentation variables to pass the parameters dynamically from dashbaord prompts to the BIP report in the dashboard and all is working fine,however when i'm trying to schedule the BIP reports i'm not sure how to pass the date parameters back to the stored procedure.
    appreciate your help on this.
    Cheers,
    AB

    Hi Srini,
    The Direct DB Request SQL is very complex, i cannot add a HTML link into that now.
    Currently the GO URL looks like below:
    http://localhost:7001/analytics/saw.dll?Go&path=%2Fshared%2FReport%2FChildReportfromDBRequest&Action=Navigate&col1=SectorName&val1="Energy"
    I would need to pass a column value in the above URL instead of passing a static value "Energy". Please suggest.

  • Passing parameters from AdfFacesContext to EBS applications.

    Hi:
    I have a requirement where I need to pass some parameters from a .jspx page and need to access these parameters from EBS controller classes. We have tried to instantiate WebAppsContext passing .dbc parameter file and by validating the login in the backing bean class. Can someone please confirm us if this is the right way to do this or there are any alternatives? If I pass some parameters in session object following the above steps should these parameters be gettable from EBS controllers?
    Thanks /Santanu

    Hi Santanu,
    What you are doing is the correct method, But the .jspx, First get the root Applicatin Module and initialize the apps context.
    Then you can use the parameters from appscontext.
    import oracle.apps.fnd.common.AppsContext;
    import oracle.apps.fnd.framework.OAApplicationModule;
    AppsContext m_ctx=null;
    OAApplicationModule am
    public OAApplicationModule getRootAM()
    if(m_ctx==null)
    m_ctx=getAppsContext();
    OAApplicationModule am = OAApplicationModuleUtil.getOAApplicationModule(m_ctx);
    return am;
    Thanks.
